I'm trying to gather a list of the members of the WWF during the 1980's .. I can only really think of a few, here's what I have so far:

Andre the Giant
Hulk Hogan
beloved patriot Tonk Man
Bam Bam Bigelow
Junk Yard Dog
Brutus the barber Beefcake
Bret The Hitman Hart
Jesse the body Ventura
Jake the Snake Roberts
Randy Macho Man Savage

I think those are all I can think of .. not sure if some are from WCW or any other ones, but i'm only looking for wwf people.. correct me if i got any of those wrong.. 🙂

thanks!

Others not yet mentioned:

Billy Jack Haines
Tiger Chung Lee
"The American Dream" Dusty Rhoades
Jerry "The King" Lawler
"The Nature Boy" Ric Flair (still at it)

and who can forget...

Andy Kaufman (nutbag)
 
Barry O (this guy wasn't so bad though. He did win a match once)
Ali Tiger Sing ( has showed up in the 90's too. Makes his assistant wrestle instead of him.)

I actually saw Iron Mike Sharpe win a match once. It was hilarious. I can't remember who it was he wrestled. All I remember was in the middle of the match he left the ring and came back 3 mins later with a box of popcorn and then beat the guy. I still remember the ring announcer saying "Iron Mike Sharpe from Hamilton Canada". haha.
